WHAT HAPPENED?

The 22-year-old has spent the 2023-24 campaign on loan at Spanish outfit Getafe. He appeared to bid farewell to them following their final La Liga outing of the season. That agreement will officially come to a close at the end of June.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

The transfer window will be open by then, with plenty of interest in Greenwood being shown. Premier League clubs are said to have asked about his availability, while the likes of Juventus, Napoli, Atletico Madrid and Borussia Dortmund are all reported to be mulling over approaches.

DID YOU KNOW?

If no switch is agreed by June 30, though, Greenwood could re-join the ranks at United in pre-season, according to The Athletic. While the one-cap England international may have no future at Old Trafford, the Red Devils cannot prevent him from reporting to training due to the terms of his contract.

WHAT NEXT FOR GREENWOOD?

Greenwood’s deal in Manchester is due to run until 2025, while there is the option of a 12-month extension being triggered. There has been talk of another loan being sanctioned, which could bring Getafe back into the picture, but a permanent transfer is considered to be in the pipeline.
